  • The Water Abrasive Suspension Cutting Tool ( WAS )

With the Water Abrasive Suspension Cutting process, almost all material can be cut with the aid of a cold high pressure   water jet and a sharp – edged abrasive. This specialized technology can    be used both in air and under water. The cuts are   executed in a contact – free manner, with no   heat generation or deformation, regardless of material in question, because of   the low recoil, it is the ideal cutting tool for remote operation. The important part of the equipment includes a high-  pressure pump, a mixing unit for abrasive material, high pressure hoses, a cutting head with   nozzle (0.5 – 1.3 mm diameter)   and a manipulation system for the nozzle head. The potential energy represent by the pressure and the flow is converted into   a cutting jet with a velocity of several hundred meters per second. With the water, the abrasive particles are accelerated and   these cut like a knife through the work piece.

  • THE COMPETITIVE EDGE

Working pressure up to 2500 bar ( 36000 psi ) – cutting in water depths of up to 600 meters – Cutting up to 500 mm steel or   1500 mm concrete
Ideal for the removal and decommissioning of foundation of wind farms or other construction.

  • REFERENCES:

The WAS System has been used for the following applications:
Cutting and decommissioning of storage tanks, cutting works after an explosion in Refineries, use for ammunition / rocket   cutting, cutting of rocket silos ( Ukraine ) decommissioning of the first German Nuclear Power Station at Kahl, cutting   entrance hole into a nuclear submarine vessel, repair cutting on several offshore windmill structures, decommissioning of oil/   gas platform worldwide, etc.
